Just saw Ah at gas station

He told me I had abandoned him that his last boss where he quit his job was an a hole all he did was say how everyone is against him and how nothing is his fault. It made me sad I tried to be civil and just speak with him and he just started spewing hate I know I've made the right decision but to see someone so lost in alcohol just really upsets me. He said he's just going to continue to do odd jobs and not get a full time job and just keep living with his 80 year old parents - talk about enablers. Not my problem not my circus I have to take care of myself.

That is sad. I'm sorry. Sometimes I look at the ruin of a human being that my ex is now and compare that to the man he was when I met him. If he wanted to stop he would. But he didn't so he found an enabler.

Sounds like my ex husband-are you sure it wasn't him?!? Seems like a common theme-addict loses marriage and runs home to mommy (and daddy). Hmmm....maybe we are into something!

Keep your head up-God will show us signs and lead us-I think he's showing you plenty right now!

Peace and hugs to you.

It would appear they are content with doing the bare minimum in life with the least amount of responsibility. A sad existence but it’s their existence of choice and we can be grateful we got ourselves out and on a healthier level of life.

((hugs))

Ugh. I hate it when you don't expect it. It's sad, but you are right, you have done the right thing. He won't change as long as he is being enabled.

Not fun for sure Redheadsusie but at least it is a bit of confirmation of your decision.

Grace, angles, pixie dust or whatever good juju to everyone of you.

Abandon. What is it with that word?? They all seem to use it.

Abandon. I would equate that to leaving a child or a puppy, not a grown adult.

Ugh!
